All the 6.1 kernels have the same behavior.

It's alright. The 5.10 works. Hopefully when 6.1 gets upgraded they will have one without PREEMPT_DYNAMIC to try.

I will mark this solved.

I rebooted with the 5.10 kernel, it works:

uname

Linux Oya 5.10.0-23-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 5.10.179-3 (2023-07-27) x86_64 GNU/Linux

With the default 6.1 kernel it does not:
uname

Linux Oya 6.1.0-11-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian 6.1.38-4 (2023-08-08) x86_64 GNU/Linux

so something broke, for this particular machine, in 6.1

I tried downgrading the firmware to the version that is on Chimaera (20210315-3), rebooted. No change.

Thanks. I tried it, apt-get returns

firmware-amd-graphics is already the newest version (20230210-5).

I upgraded 1 machine to Daedalus with no problems.

On the second machine I have very low screen resolution.

Xrandr:

xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 0: minimum 640 x 400, current 720 x 480, maximum 720 x 480

720x400 0.00

I have tried reinstalling the radeon drivers. I have set GRUB_GFXMODE to 1920x1080. I have searched online but have not found a solution.

Using a Gentoo rescue disk the resolution is correct. It was correct under  Chimaera.

Any help appreciated.

Hi, I am attempting to upgrade Devuan to Deadalus from Chimaera. I updated the source.list file.

apt-get update returns:

Err:5 http://deb.devuan.org/merged deadalus Release
  404  Not Found [IP: 5.9.122.185 80]
Err:6 http://deb.devuan.org/merged deadalus-updates Release
  404  Not Found [IP: 5.9.122.185 80]
Err:7 http://deb.devuan.org/merged deadalus-security Release
  404  Not Found [IP: 5.9.122.185 80]
Err:8 http://deb.devuan.org/merged deadalus-backports Release
  404  Not Found [IP: 5.9.122.185 80]

E: The repository 'http://deb.devuan.org/merged deadalus Release' does not have a Release file.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.

What am I doing wrong? Thanks
